Standard (EADGBE)
It's a tinker I am, and a travellin' m an
I follow the wind and the st ars
If I've shoes on me feet,and an old crust to e at
I'm as happy as any by f ar
I'm as rich as a king when I lay down to dr eam
On My pillow of sawdust or h ay
And the friends that I make I would never for sake
And their kindness one day I'll re pay
Chorus
So thank you for sharing the wa rmth of your fire
And an 'oul cup of tea or t wo
And that warm feather bed,where I lay down my h ead
for making me welcome,thank you.
I'm a jack of all trades,and as sharp as a b lade
When it comes to the markets and fa irs
Mending 'oul pots and pans or whatever I c an
Not a penny I'd give for your ca res
Chorus
Bridge
Now the cold winds of winter can c ut like a knife
And the rain chills me deep to the b one
But the warm summer breezes still b low in my mind
And it's them keeps me carryin' on
When the cock crows the dawn,I'll be already g one
Through the meadow that runs by the t rees
I think nothing of time,for the world is all mi ne
I can come and can go as I pl ease
Repeat Chorus Twice
